Sculptor's model/votive depicting a king and jackal busts

Late Period, Saite

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 130

This odd relief has many features in common with a group of 26th Dynasty donation reliefs excavated at Edfu. These reliefs are likely to be forerunners of so-called "sculptors' models / votives" that are usually dated to the 4th century B.C. and later.
